“As an artist, I like to be out in the world, and what initially compelled me was to try to push society to a better place. So when I’m not in heartbreak or motherhood mode, that’s where you’ll naturally find me.”

How lucky for music lovers everywhere that Ani DiFranco has returned. After a three-year break, Ani has released her twentieth studio album, BINARY, on her own Righteous Babe label. In addition to a new album and a forthcoming summer tour kicking off at Glastonbury on June 25, Ani also has a new website, designed and powered by Section 101. 

Grammy Award winner DiFranco has always blazed her own path. In 1990, she became one of the first artists to put music out on their own label rather than become beholden to a traditional label system. Always outspoken, and fiercely in tune with what is happening around her, DiFranco lends her name and music to causes she believes in such as abortion rights, LBGT issues and female empowerment.

With BINARY, Ani continues her pattern of writing earnest, powerful and honest songs. In a review of the new album, Paste magazine said,  “The listener gets lost in the melody and groove long before they realize what truths these songs contain,” while American Songwriter concurred, “It’s hard to over emphasize the substantial influence Ani DiFranco has on independent music.”

Section 101 is thrilled to be working with an innovator like Ani DiFranco. Please visit http://anidifranco.com to get the latest news, tour dates, music and more!
